FABB encourages local riders to participate in an FCDOT virtual stakeholder meeting for the Route 28 Widening Project on Wednesday, May 11, 2022, from 12 Noon to 1:30 pm. Presentations will update the community on the status of the project, upcoming construction activities, and discuss the project land acquisition schedule and process. Staff from FCDOT and Shirley Contracting Company will be available to answer questions.
Local riders need to continue to show support for the plans to improve bicycle and pedestrian connections and crossings, including new 10-foot shared-use paths on both sides of Route 28 over a distance of approximately 2.3 miles from the existing bridge over Bull Run to the interchange at Route 29. This project was approved by the county in 2014, so local riders and walkers need to stay engaged until the new path is completed.
You can check out the Route 28 Phase 2 Right-of-Way Plans and then join the Virtual Meeting here. You also can dial in at 1-571-429-5982 and use access code: 901 419 848#.
Comments can be submitted here.
Speak Up! and make sure the shared-used path is maintained in the plan.
